Add SoftWare Heritage persistent IDentifier snapshots
See https://docs.softwareheritage.org/devel/swh-model/persistent-identifiers.html for the technical details of that spec. Software Heritage has done a superb job promoting content addressing in general, and their identifier scheme (SWHIDs, for short) in particular. By supporting them in CIDs / IPLD, I hope the IPFS ecosystem can align itself with that effort. Per the linked documentation, SWHIDs have their own nested grammar and versioning scheme. I begun by taking the version 1 core identifier grammar, unrolled it, and replaced `:` with `-` per the guidelines on separators, with the result being these 5 rows. There is overlap between the remaining for and git-raw, so this just adds SWHID snapshots for now.
